IETF Netfax Working Group Meeting
San Diego, 3/16/92 9:30 AM
Minutes

The IETF Netfax Working Group met at the San Diego IETF
meeting. The primary purpose of the meeting was to get a
progress report and plan future work.

1) Needleman reported that the file format document has
   been accepted by the IESG which has recommended to the IAB
   that it be accepted as a proposed standard. Every indication
   is that this will happen.

2) Needleman reported that work is going on to convene a meeting
   under the sponsorship of the Coalition for Networked Information
   of all known groups doing applications involving networked
   fax to talk about converting to the rfc file format and to
   plan interoperability testing. He asked that, if anyone knew
   of organizations that were involved in this area who hould
   be involved in such a meeting, that he be contacted with
   their names so he could invite them. He promised to keep
   the mailing list informed on the status and outcome of
   this effort.

3) Needleman also discussed the fact that after two years of
   discussion and work no consensus had developed on any of
   the other issues the group had been working on beyond the
   file format such as addressing and routing issues and
   that it didnt seem likely that such consensus was going
   to develop any time soon.

4) It was decided that since such consensus was not going
   to develop, the group would quiesce for awhile and not
   meet again until something happened to create such a need.
   It was felt that perhaps the CNI work would act as a
   catalyst and that maybe in some of the interoperability
   testing undertaken by that group, some solutions to
   some of the unresolved issues such as routing and addressing
   would be created that could act as a basis for future work
   in the IETF working group.

5) The group thus decided not to meet again until there was
   a need for it, and to follow the efforts of the CNI work.
   Needleman promised to keep the working group updated on
   those efforts by means of the working group mailing list.
